LEARNING BENEFITS:

Treatment of Alberta's in situ oil sands-produced water is becoming increasingly challenging...

...because of the high scaling and fouling potential and increasing requirements from Directive 081. As a result, operators are innovating recovery technologies for water usage reduction and applying the very latest used water treatment techniques to reduce the percentage of water disposed of.

The In Situ Oil Sands Water Treatment & Re-Use Optimization Congress will bring together the water treatment, facility and process experts in the oil sands operating industry to share their best practices for optimizing water usage and reducing the percentage of water disposed.

REDUCING DISPOSAL: How operators are optimizing and reconfiguring SAGD plants to reduce water disposal percentage and meet Directive 81 requirements

BRACKISH WATER USE: Analyzing sourcing solutions and the implications of brackish water use in SAGD

RECYCLING: Assessing the operating costs and effectiveness of the latest treatment technologies being used to recycle water for steam generation - membranes, evaporators, crystallization

BOILER OPTIMIZATION: Assessing how to safely reduce tube fouling and pigging frequency to maximize running time and avoid extensive down time costs

WATER SUPPLIES: Identifying brackish and non-oil and gas industry water sources for in situ production to reduce reliance on fresh sources

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: Examining techniques and initiatives for reducing GHG emissions and the overall environmental footprint of water management

The Oil Sands Water Management Series was the original event focused specifically on in-situ water use when it was first launched in 2011 and for the past 4 years, has addressed the ever-evolving issues and challenges facing in situ operators, helping to reduce costs and improve efficiencies in many Athasbasca oil sands operations.
